Centos 7.6 partitioning directory problem
by Sambrad from LinuxQuestions.org on (#559Z1)
I need help with mounting a partition and making a directory on it
Running lsblk reveals
sda 8:0 0 558.4G 0 disk
sda1 8:1 0 1G 0 part /boot
sda2 8:2 0 557.4G 0 part
centos-root 253:0 0 50G 0 lvm /
centos-swap 253:1 0 15.7G 0 lvm [SWAP]
centos-home 253:2 0 491.7G 0 lvm /home
sdb 8:16 0 1.7T 0 disk
sdb1 8:17 0 200G 0 part /mnt
sr0 11:0 1 1024M 0 rom
I need to get sdb1 setup with a directory called database for use with ordering software and to get it viewable (does not show up using ls-a etc)
Please help as this is a real stumbling block for me
Thanks in advance for advice /help
